I feel the actual name was less of a problem for the committee, they were more worried about possible conflicts, and wanted to make sure that we place our library so that it can't conflict no matter what name we pick.
There are couple of names floating around (including i18n, World, Text). Locale has a more low level meaning (usually a class that maintains locale information), so it could confuse developers. Most of ad hoc members would like to skip i18n, l10n, g11n kind of names (I'll let Norbert explain the reasoning). 17. новембар 2011. 10.19, Dmitry Soshnikov <[email protected]> је написао/ла: > ** > On 17.11.2011 22:07, Nebojša Ćirić wrote: > > HI all, > we briefly discussed the i18n namespace at the meeting yesterday.
